Imperial 1959 Rioja
Imperial is one of the fine cellars owned by Compania Vinicola del Norte de Espania (CVNE), with it's stand-alone facilities located in CVNE's original winery. As a range, Imperial Rioja was first bottled in the 1920s and took its name from the unique bottle size in which the wine was sold - Imperial Pints for the UK market.
This 1959 vintage is likely to be a typical Rioja blend dominated by Tempranillo (about 85%) with some Garnacha (10-15%) and possibly a small volume of Mazuelo (to 5%).
